They say age is just a number, and I agree to that. But age is the irreversible act of nature that withers the body even when the soul is still young at heart. Although most people embrace these cosmetic changes that age bestows upon them, it always feels good to look and feel young once again. For that, we have makeup to the rescue!
Anar Agakishiev, a makeup artist and beauty consultant, has an incredible art of making women look decades younger than their actual age.
Although beauty is all about natural grace, a little make-up never killed nobody, right? Anar’s most intriguing work is seen in transforming older women to look much, much younger. His skills in hiding wrinkles, rectifying discolouration and working with sunken eyes make him an artist to admire.
Here are just a few of his most amazing works.
1. From hair to skin to eyes – WOAH!
2. Call it extra, but we love extra of any and everything!
3. I love those risen cheekbones and the slight smile, don’t you?
4. This is an absolutely beautiful transformation.
5. Is this even the same person? :O
6. I thought these transformations only happen in movies, but well…
7. One of the best transformations ever!
8. Notice the sudden surge of confidence in those eyes and you’ll know what makeup does to us women.
9. Magic at the tip of your fingers.

10. Those green eyes just make it even more appealing, don’t you think?
11. I would have totally believed this to be photoshopped.
12. I have absolutely no words left to express how awed I am.
13. Can’t even begin to guess the age.
14.
15. What sorcery is this, really?
16.
17. The joy in this picture is unmissable!
18. I can’t, I just can’t believe they’re the same people.
19. If this isn’t a form of art, what is?
20. Simply S.T.U.N.N.I.N.G.
I know, I know. Some of you will say that this is deceptive and desperate. But do you notice one similarity in all of the above pictures? No? It’s the self-confidence in the ‘after’ photos. Scroll up again and you’ll know what I’m saying!
Women do not wear makeup to please others, they wear it look and feel good about themselves. And as long as they are happy with these transformations, maybe we should just admire the art and the beauty that surrounds us. Howzzat?
